Title: 1/48 Yak-7B Andrey Petrovich Chernobay Post by: jamoliva on March 15, 2021, 12:28:55 AM Finally I was able to finish this model. It is an ARK model which is based on older the ICM kit but of a lesser quality in my opinion. Not a perfect one, of course, and it has some errors but I think it turned out to be an OK representation of Chernobay's aircraft from December 1942. I used Vallejo Air VVS colors AMT-4/6/7. It is weathered by archival ink pens and AK pencils. I photographed it in daylight. I hope you like it.
I used the photos on following references: http://www.airaces.narod.ru/all0/chernoby.htm http://soviet-aces-1936-53.ru/abc/ch/chernobai.htm (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_4-jpg.615999) (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_3-jpg.615998) (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_6-jpg.616000) (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_5-jpg.616001) (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_9-jpg.616002) (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_10-jpg.616004) (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_8-jpg.616003) (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_7-jpg.616005) (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_11-jpg.616006) (https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/attachments/yak-7b_chernobay_12-jpg.616007) Title: Re: 1/48 Yak-7B Andrey Petrovich Chernobay Post by: Massimo Tessitori on March 27, 2021, 11:49:52 AM Hi,
I hadn't seen the photos. The kit of ICM is poor, but your model is nicely done and looks good. Regards Massimo Title: Re: 1/48 Yak-7B Andrey Petrovich Chernobay Post by: learstang on April 04, 2021, 07:31:27 PM Excellent job on that Yak-7B!
Best Regards, Jason Title: Re: 1/48 Yak-7B Andrey Petrovich Chernobay Post by: K.Ingraham on April 10, 2021, 06:36:29 PM Welcome to the forum! That is excellent work. I've had a work-in-progress with this kit for around 12 years now; it can be finished probably in 1-2 work sessions but for some reason, that also applies to about 30 other projects near by bench...but seeing your work just might propel me to completing mine--I hope it will turn out half as nice.
